SAFETY RULES ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED! Safety is a primary concern in the design and manufacture of our products. Unfortunately, our efforts to provide safe equipment can be erased by an operator’s single careless act. In addition, hazard control and accident prevention are dependent upon the awareness, concern, judgement, and proper training of personnel involved in the operation, transport, maintenance and storage of equipment.
SAFETY SIGNS ATTENTION! BECOME ALERT! YOUR SAFETY IS INVOLVED! Replace Immediately If Damaged or Missing! IMPORTANT: Install new safety signs if the old signs are destroyed, lost, painted over or cannot be read. When parts are replaced that have safety signs, make sure you install a new sign with each new part. New signs are available from the manufacturer or your authorized dealer. Ref.
SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS FOR RUNNING GEAR (Continued) IMPORTANT: Set-up work to be performed by qualified servicemen only. 7) Adding Brake Fluid to the Master Cylinder. IMPORTANT: Do NOT shake the brake fluid container. AVOID agitating the system when bleeding. Do NOT “pump” the brake plunger. Instead, depress and release slowly. Fill the master cylinder carefully, pouring the fluid down the side of the reservoir to minimize air entrainment. METHOD ONE (requires two people) Close all bleed screws.
